The best restaurants in Louth

08/12/2025: Called in here on Saturday night, nice atmosphere, good crowd but not overcrowded, enjoyed the band and great pints. We'll be back again.

26/07/2025: The Phoenix Park cafe is in a great location. The owners have the luxury of getting a captive audience due to the volume of people visiting the park and the lack of places to eat. I feel that the food has gone downhill. I’ve been consistently disappointed with the last few visits. My last visit was at the end of June. We all ordered lasagne and the food was dry and tasteless. There was a lack of choice of salads on the day that we visited. This restaurant used to be great. It’s a shame.

01/01/2026: By far the worst experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Waiting 2.5hrs for food and when it arrived first all the order was wrong and when it eventually came it was stone cold. Paid almost €500. Absolute robbery.

22/12/2025: Very relaxed atmosphere. Staff and food so good i always return.

08/03/2026: shit quality food, shit service, forgot half my order

07/03/2026: 2024: Food was really hot but wasn't fresh, 3 fish sandwich. Fish was fried long time ago but sandwich was made fresh. 20 nuggets boxed also too long ago, just soggy, fries was the best thing. But wasn't fairly filled. drinks as always never has ice but we all accepted that problem. The mc crispy was good tho. Well-done, Update 2026 7th march Attach images for reference Why buns always grilled? Food was made by who?!, I'm asked to sit at waiting bay 2 so the fish can be burnt, looks nicer in picture for some reason. Added an extra image to compare but why the cheese be like bean bag toss game?

31/05/2025: was here the other day got chips and chicken burger and fries well if that is what u wanna call them i would say that they where in the fryer from the day before they were soaked in grease and crisped and my friend got chicken and chips and garlic spicy sauce and was horrible again chips in it was same waste of money... the picture shows some of what the chips where like.

07/05/2025: Super smash burger but the bacon and cheese fries stole the show

18/04/2025: Lots of fresh food to choose from

16/04/2025: Goos shopping experience, a bit expensive though!

13/12/2025: Went there for dinner. Ordered 2 main courses which were cold after long delay. Asked for potato instead of chips. Cost 3.50. Parmesan cheese coat 2.50. Bit over the top. We not offered the desert menu. Restaurant was quiet for a Friday. Have visited before and was lovely but would not go back.

28/11/2025: We had to leave because we didn’t have cash, but we’ve really felt bad because the workers were very nice.

18/12/2025: Added toppings onto my order that I didn’t ask for . Also waited 20 minutes for this simple order, had to wait another amount of time for my order to be rectified ( other customers coming in and getting served and their food handed to them while I am waiting) staff quite unfriendly and unwelcoming and No apology for the delay

11/11/2025: Hours listening to this on a sunday. Stop. Do you know how many castle ross residents had to listen to this. Its extremely loud. Would it not be fair or reasonable to power wash during the week when everyones in work??

30/11/2025: Dead pub. Had it's day and is now rotting and decaying. Went in for a pint and to watch the football, felt like I was in a strangers living room Won't be coming back any time soon at all Needs massive improvement in all aspects

15/10/2025: Sign says "Fine food served daily". Food is only served Thursday thru Sunday.

14/11/2025: The entry was €20 per person, and we spent another €15–25 each on drinks and food, which felt a bit on the expensive side. Personally, I think a lower door price would make it even more appealing. That said, the atmosphere was excellent—lively crowd, great music, and really friendly service. We had a lot of fun overall. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you want to hang out with a group of friends and enjoy a vibrant night out.

14/11/2025: The atmosphere in this place is amazing, and I can honestly recommend it for a pleasant time. But the service really disappointed me. I asked about Guinness 0.0 — the waitress simply said they didn’t have it and didn’t offer any alternatives. I had to literally pull information out of her about what they did have. When I said I was waiting for my girlfriend and we would only be having drinks, she rolled her eyes — a pretty unpleasant moment, especially considering this is a bar and restaurant, not a cafeteria. In the end she also brought me a sweet cider, even though there are less sweet options on the menu. When I pointed out the difference between Guinness and sweet cider, she didn’t even apologize, just smiled. After that I paid and left. It’s a shame, because the atmosphere is great, but the staff’s attitude completely kills the desire to stay.

14/10/2025: Very nice place, very good customer service The food is horrible absolutely nothing Not even worth trying

06/09/2025: Food was lovely, friendly staff and stunning view over the garden

09/12/2025: Guys… never mention medium spicy!! Burned my mouth… staff told its a Chinese takeaway and that’s how it will feel like .. can’t imagine how spicy will feel like 🙏🙏🙏🙏

20/11/2025: Food is lovely but Ya think when ya spend 40e on food and delivery they throw in a bag of prawncrackers.

19/01/2026: My hole family eat From this chipper, but Tony what are you doing my friend, I'm sorry but I have to write this,the food I got last night was disgusting,the pizza was so bad it jus pealed off the bread base,the chips were dry crisp an hard,the milk shakes was warm, and it took over a hour to deliver,do you kno what I did with it Tony,I gave it to my dog,I'm so sorry, your a good man, but it probably wasn't you,maybe ur on holidays or something, I hope you get to read this 💯.

22/12/2025: Dropped into Tony's for 3 kiddies meals. Very busy and with good reason as food and staff very good

26/10/2025: Lovely staff serving you with a smile 😊

24/10/2025: I ate there twice, the first time I didn't like it, the second time I liked it, I don't recommend the wrap, it's expensive, a small wrap costs 7€ and it's not tasty, I recommend getting the wings, they're tastier, 10 wings for 12€

30/11/2025: We had dinner in this restaurant last night food was absolutely disgusting,have been there many times before was a very good restaurant will never return again even the menu was in bad condition.

30/11/2025: Really enjoy the food, the atmosphere and the service in Gourmet Palace. Have never been disappointed. For me, the best Chinese in Dundalk.

30/01/2026: Can anyone tell me if this place is still open or is it shut down

10/12/2025: I went with some friends and we had a good time. There was live music and I think it's a great place to unwind.
